That's what I'm doing. I choose to focus on Humanities so I study philosophy, literature (french and English), History, Spanish, Geography, Latin (you can do greek if you want as well) and Theatre (you can also study Cinema, Art History or Cartography).

Did you know that in France you can *willingly* choose to go back in High School after you have your high school diploma to study in the most demanding higher study programs for two (to three) years so you can sit for a competitive exam for the most prestigious french universities.
